Key Review Excerpts

The facility is impressive. It’s super clean. All the staff is amiable and sweet. They take excellent care of my brother.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★★

Residents are unkempt, allowed to sit in dirty diapers, rooms are dirty. Rare if any meaningful progress reports and never we participated in an interdisciplinary meeting.

Long-term resident's family · 2025☆☆☆☆

No AC, terrible staff, flys all over his food, people smoking cigarettes outside his door non stop, the tv didn’t work, they don’t look at the diet plan, they took his phone out of his hand while he was talking to his son

This facility has concerning patterns with families filing complaints that led to 22 deficiencies across multiple areas.
